Easter is on it’s way and I am very much looking forward to it. I’m ready for the bright colors, the pastels, and anything with spring green. And I am helping it along with the bright tones of these Salt Dough Easter Egg Ornaments.

Salt dough lends itself to all sorts of shape making. Once baked to thoroughly dry, the dough is hard and can last for years. The dough is also paintable which makes it all the more fun.

I love the tradition of an Easter Tree — a branch on which to hang eggs, bunnies and colorful bits. Part of this batch of Salt Dough Easter Eggs will hang on our tree but I hope to hang some outside too. You see, if a spray paint or clear spray paint sealer is used, these ornaments can hung outside and inside alike.

I think seeing bright bits of color amidst the early spring landscape would be lovely, don’t you? Let’s get started.
